Latest website: "Guys, I'm a tour guide, I'm a real child."

Using a strange beast to pull a cart, Xiaoyou saw that he was an honored guest, so he rushed to the carriage and introduced him vigorously, "Follow me, I will make sure that your trip is worthwhile."

The car curtain was lifted and Zi Chen poked his head out, "Xiao You?"

When Xiaoyou heard this voice, he was startled. He slowly raised his head and saw a familiar face.

"grown ups!"

This voice was broken.

"Why are you soliciting customers here again?"

Zi Chen got off the carriage, and the others also got off the carriage and greeted Xiao You.

Looking at these familiar people, Xiaoyou choked up and said: "Boss Chen, you are finally back!"

Then, he hugged Zi Chen and started crying, as if he wanted to cry out all his grievances.

"Say what you have to say, don't do this."

Passers-by looked sideways and had strange eyes.

Xiaoyou finally stopped crying and then told what happened.

During the time that Zi Chen left, the business of the tavern was getting better and better. Although the original special seasoning was gone and had no effect on the recovery of the injury, it still did not affect the business.

Almost everyone is used to it and comes here for a drink every time we come back.

But just a few months ago, the merchant who originally supplied meat suddenly tripled the price, which made the tavern, which already had small profits but quick turnover, a little bit unable to bear it.

Fortunately, there are still some diners who come here with some ingredients, which can barely sustain the expenses. However, within a few days, these diners no longer send ingredients here. Meats from other places cannot be purchased, so they can only buy them at high prices, and the prices of ingredients are getting higher and higher. The prices are getting higher and higher, so the pub can only increase prices, and naturally there will be fewer and fewer customers.

"Those regular customers know what's going on, and they will come here occasionally to support us. But the price has increased, and according to their conditions, they are not enough to support coming here every day."

Xiaoyou cried while talking, it was really a bitter tears.

"Now everything is sold at a loss, but there are still no customers. We originally thought about closing the store, but Mrs. Chen disagreed. She said that if you, Boss Chen, come back one day and see the store closed, you will be very sad. .”

Sister-in-law Chen is Lao Chen's wife, and she takes care of her children alone.

Logically speaking, this store already belongs to her, and closing the store early can indeed reduce a lot of losses.

Keeping it open, even if it's a loss, is still thinking about old friendship.

After listening to the small talk, Zi Chen's expression did not change much. Although the other party's methods were very shameless, it must be said that this recruitment was bloodless.

Being able to see them all alive when I came back this time was a blessing in itself, so there was no need to be too demanding.

Everyone in the tavern was listless. When they saw Zi Chen coming in, they thought there were guests and hurriedly got up.

It wasn't until Mrs. Chen rubbed her eyes that she exclaimed, "Boss Chen?"

Zi Chen smiled and said, "Everyone, long time no see."

The others came back to their senses and looked at the people at the door, unable to believe their eyes.

Everyone began to cheer excitedly.

"I'm sorry, I ruined the store." Mrs. Chen wiped her tears, feeling extremely guilty after the excitement of meeting again had passed.

Others also lowered their heads, not daring to look at Zi Chen and the others.

It was a bustling shop when I left, but it was like this when I came back.

"I already know the matter from Xiaoyou, and it has nothing to do with you." Zi Chen said, "To be honest, I'm actually quite relieved."

Several people looked at Zi Chen in confusion.

Business is like this, what else is there to be happy about?

"Because you are all still here, if the business is gone, we can start again. If the person is gone, I can't get him back even if I have all the means."

Zi Chen smiled and said, "So, cheer up, I'm back, and our business will be booming soon."

Boss Chen was still concerned about their safety at this time, which moved them so much that they couldn't help but wipe away tears.

"We close today, let's celebrate, and make a comeback tomorrow."

The shop closed early and everyone gathered together happily. Everyone told the interesting things that happened during this period and how difficult it was during this period.

Everyone has bitter tears.

Zi Chen listened silently, sometimes raising a glass to drink together.

In the evening, someone knocked on the door.

It's Liuyu.

This surprised several people.

Did he knock on the door to get in?

He was there in a blink of an eye.

Seeing everyone drinking, Liu Yu, who loves wine, did not sit down to drink. Instead, he ate a few pieces of barbecue and pulled Zi Chen aside, "Here you go."

Four mountain-bearing stones.

"You really don't want a drink?" Zi Chen put away the mountain stone.

Liu Yu shook his head, "As soon as I came here, I couldn't breathe. There are weird things here, so be careful."

Zi Chen was puzzled. His mental power was not even a bit stronger than Liu Yu's. When he came here, he didn't find anything unusual.

Why did Liu Yu say he was so stressed that he couldn't breathe?

Fu Zhengqi, Zilan and Wang Yiling didn't notice any difference.

"Have you been stimulated by anything recently?" Zi Chen asked doubtfully.

"I'm not kidding you. It's so stressful here that I can't breathe. It feels like I'm in a confined space filled with people. Forget it, believe it or not, I have to leave. If I stay any longer, I'm afraid of myself It will collapse."

Liu Yu turned around and left the tavern, then walked towards the outside of Gesha Town.

Zi Chen just kept using his mental power to probe him. Liu Yu walked all the way without using his power. Moreover, his expression was very solemn. He looked around as if there were really people standing around.

This made Zi Chen very puzzled.

After everyone left, Zi Chen asked a few people if they felt unwell, but everyone shook their heads.

"One piece for each person."

Zi Chen took out the Chengshan Stone and everyone got a piece.

"this is mine?"

Looking at the mountain-bearing stone on the table, Fu Zhengqi was stunned.

He already knew how valuable this thing was, and he never thought that the Mythical Alliance would give him a piece.

But it soon became clear that Zi Chen probably meant that he was not related to the Mythical Alliance, so there was no reason for them to give him such a valuable thing.

Even if you try to win over him, you won’t give it.

"You have to pay it back." Zi Chen smiled slightly.

Fu Zhengqi nodded and took the Chengshan Stone.

"Master, how are you going to handle this matter?" Zilan said angrily: "Obviously, this is what those villains in the administration did."

"There are indeed scoundrels in the administration, but they are not all fools. Everyone has been safe in the past few years, so why has something happened recently?" Zi Chen said, "Let's wait and see."

In the evening, someone came from the Zhang family.

In Gesha Market Town, the Zhang family did some small business. In fact, there was no industry here before, and they looked down upon this place at all.

But after Zi Chen appeared here, they started some small business here.

The Zhang family brought complete information. A person came five months ago and did not come out after entering the bureau. It is said that he even caused a small commotion.

No one knew the man's name or what he looked like, but from that day on, the people in the administration gradually became tougher in their behavior.

The edge that was lost from Zi Chen gradually appeared.

But there is no conflict between the administration and the tavern.

Three and a half months ago, people from the administration suddenly took action on the tavern's supply chain. They first threatened and lured those who provided meat and raised prices, and then suppressed and targeted the adventurers who provided exotic beasts to the tavern.

It was obvious that he wanted to bring down the tavern.

The two parties did not meet directly during this period, so although the tavern speculated that the administration was responsible, there was no evidence.

In fact, it’s useless even if you have evidence. How can you still expect to appeal to the administration?

"Such a big thing happened, why didn't they report it?" Zilan also saw the above content and was very puzzled.

"You think it's a big deal, but in their eyes, it's just an inconspicuous little piece of news, and it's not worth bothering other people at all."

Zi Chen was not surprised by this, nor did he blame the other party.

If a tavern closes down and no lives are lost, of course they will not get involved.

And such a trivial matter is not worthy of reporting to the family.

To be honest, it was only because he had some relationship with Zi Chen that we had a complete record.

Zi Chen put away the information, returned to the room, and took out the Chengshan Stone. This time he did not refine it, but just put it in his hand to comprehend.

One night passed, and the omnipotent mental power didn't seem to have any tricks up its sleeve.

It was dawn, and Zi Chen went to buy ingredients.

When the shop owner saw Zi Chen, his expression changed instantly, and then he knelt on the ground with a thud.

"Old Chen, what do you mean?"

This old man is getting older.

"Boss Chen, this really doesn't concern me, it's not me."

Of course the butcher, Lao Chen, knew Zi Chen, and they had interacted with each other too many times.

When Zi Chen transformed into Boss Chen, he chose the honest and trustworthy Lao Chen from among many butchers. Although Zi Chen was not like this at that time, Lao Chen saw Zi Chen's true appearance from a distance during the battle that day, and he would certainly not forget it.

"Get up, this matter has nothing to do with you, I'm just here to buy meat." Zi Chen waved his hand, and Lao Chen stood up.

Old Chen shook his head repeatedly, "I won't sell it, I'll give it to Boss Chen."

"No, just buy it at five times the price."

Of course, Zi Chen couldn't take advantage of Lao Chen. In fact, he couldn't make much money from a small business.

When Lao Chen first raised the price, he doubled the price. Seeing that the tavern could still operate, he tripled the price, and finally raised it to five times.

The same goes for other vendors.

Zi Chen asked for a huge amount and paid on the spot, which made Lao Chen even more ashamed. He personally took someone to deliver the meat, and it was just a lot more.

As soon as Lao Chen came back, Wang San blocked the door.

He is the boss of the butcher here. Without saying a word, he stepped forward and slapped Old Chen in the mouth. "Old Chen, is the business good today? I heard there is a big business?"

"That's extra money."

Lao Chen knelt on the ground, deducted the cost, and gave all the money to Wang San without making any profit.

"You're a smart bitch!"

A few more big mouths were thrown at him, and old Chen's mouth was bleeding, but he didn't dare to say a word. When Wang San saw this, he led others to leave with curses.

Wang San then took the money, dispersed the others, and cursed all the way to the management office.

"Damn it, you bought so much meat, do you want to make a comeback? Stop dreaming, a bunch of dogs can do business?"

"Hmph, I'll eat in your shop in a few days. If the food smells bad, I'll take off your roof!"

"Zi Chen, Mythical Alliance? Damn, you can't do anything in front of me!"

Wang San chatted with someone at the back door of the management office for a long time. He changed his previous arrogant attitude, bowed his head and smiled, and handed the money to the other person respectfully.

Afterwards, Wang San left.

Suddenly, a force swept over Wang San and took him into a corner.

Listen to a bang bang bang.

Wang San fell to the ground with a bruised nose and swollen face. Many bones in his body were broken, and he weakly asked for help.

The man took the money, walked to the front door, and strode into the administration.

Bang!

Suddenly, a force came from behind and kicked him on the butt. He fell into the management office with an ouch.

Zi Chen stood at the door of the management office.
